NFL kicker ruins his family kickball game

There's no beating your dad when he's an NFL player.

Ugh. Dads. Always showing off their professional football skills because heaven forbid you let your kids occasionally win a kickball game.

Carolina Panthers kicker Graham Gano (who someone in your fantasy league probably drafts every year) decided that a family kickball game was not the time to go easy on his kids, and the proof is in this video the kicker posted to Twitter on Tuesday afternoon.

RUDE.

Just look at his family's stunned reaction to watching the ball fly off into the trees where it's probably going to be popped because squirrels are jerks, Graham, why didn't you think about that, huh?

Gano rounded the bases gleefully but the whereabouts of the ball remain unknown.
